This is not actually a trip report but I am so excited that our 15-day Swiss Travel Pass Flex arrived in the mail today that I had to share it with someone. Two weeks tomorrow we depart for Switzerland!

It took 26 days from ordering from HappyRail for the pass to get to Australia so if there are any Aussies out there watch out for the time lag.

Of course this would not have been a problem if we were getting the regular Swiss Travel Pass instead of the Flex. The Swiss Travel Pass you can get delivered on-line in a few days and print at home before you leave.

I was also having a mild panic that the date I set as the start would automatically be nominated as a used day on the STPF. Not so - the pass runs for a month and we have 15 empty boxes to fill in for the days we want to take advantage of the "free" travel and museums etc.

I'm sorry, that statement on our page was not correct and I removed it. Thank you for catching that! The Swiss Travel Pass can be printed at home but the Swiss Travel Pass Flex can't. I expect this to be possible in the future, but for now they've made the choice to only offer self printing for the "simpler" passes which only have a start date and no flexible dates.

3 questions: Hello. very thankful.our Swiss Travel 15 Day Flex Passes from HappyRail arrived last night. I was surprised that they did not have our names on them. We fill them in ourselves (that seems odd and insecure during mailing). But I was not sure about 3 things in filling them out as no directions came with them:

1. The first line is our name but the second line to be filled out says "LAND". Does that mean United States if that is our home land or ??

2.The third line is PASS ID #: am I correct in thinking this is our passport ID number?

3. I saw no stamp or certification...does that mean we need to take it to a SBB person when we arrive in Zurich prior to getting on a train?

The dates were correct and the places were there to fill in the 15 days we will use it. Thinking of all the places we will have explored by the time it is filled in!
